Answer:

65 cats

Step-by-step explanation:

cats: dogs: total

5:     3:        5+3=8

We need 8 to be 104

104/8 = 13

Multiply each by 13

cats: dogs: total

5*13:   3*13:  8*13

65        39     104

There are 65 cats and 39 dogs

(08.03) Consider the following pair of equations:
Luba_88 [7]

Substitution method is used to solve the linear system of equations for one or more variables.

Consider the first equation y = 3x + 3 -----(1)

In equation (1) plug in y=x-1, we get

x -1 = 3x + 3

Add -3x on both side , we get

x-3x -1 = 3x-3x +3

-2x-1=0 + 3

Now add +1 on both sides, we get

-2x-1+1= 3+1

-2x + 0 =4

Now divide both side by -2

-2x/-2= 4/-2

X= -2

Now put x=-2 in the the second equation,

y=x-1

y=(-2)-1

y=-3

Solution(-2,-3)

Line a is parallel to line b, m 6=85 and m 3=2x. Find m 1.
FromTheMoon [43]
The sum of the angles <6 and <3 must be 180. Since <3 and <1 are opposed to the top, their measure are equal. We need then to calculate the measure of angle >3 = 180 - <6 = 180-85=95

m(<1) = 95
